Democrats BLOCK Republican bid to get access to Hunter Biden documents on his foreign business dealings after arguing they could jeopardize national security–

September 20, 2022

Democrats on the House Oversight Committee quashed a Republican effort Tuesday to advance a resolution that asked President Joe Biden to send documents related to his son Hunter's business dealings to the House of Representatives.

In a vote 23-19, Democrats voted to oppose Resolution 1243, which asked Biden to send within 14 days of passage 'copies of any document, record, report, memo, correspondence or other communication in his possession' that related to 'the Biden family's international business schemes.'

'It is time for President Biden to answer some questions about his participation in his family's business schemes with some of our most signficant adversaries for years,' said Rep. James Comer, the Oversight top Republican, during a mark-up hearing Tuesday.

With Comer's party in the minority, the GOP members didn't have enough votes to move the resolution on.

There's no further action Republicans can take currently, without winning back a majority in the House.

'The American people deserve transparency about the Biden family’s suspicious foreign business deals, but Democrats today voted to conceal this information from them,' Comer said in a statement after the vote.

The resolution specifically names not only Hunter Biden, but the president's brother James Biden and his wife Sara, along with Hunter Biden's former business associates: Eric Schwerin, John Robinson Walker and Devon Archer.

Oversight Committee Chair Carolyn Maloney, who urged Democrats not to support the resolution, pointed out that 'none of these people have a role in the Biden administration.'

Maloney said it also 'reveals the misplaced priorities of our Republican colleagues.'

'These same Republicans turned a blind eye when Donald Trump incited a deadly riot in the Capitol, violating the peaceful transfer of power. And illegally removed highly classified presidential records from the White House,' she said.

Maloney, who recently lost her New York primary to Rep. Jerry Nadler, said the resolution aimed to 'smear President Biden by targeting his family.'

'This is a nakedly partisan effort so it is no surprise that it was led by none other than former President Donald Trump,' she claimed.

Rep. Jody Hice, a Georgia Republican, chimed in arguing, 'If there is nothing to fear with Hunter Biden, than there is no reason Democrats should refuse an investigation.'

'Whether Democrats care to admit it or not, there are serious concerns about the business dealings of the Biden family. There are serious concerns,' Hice said. 'These get to whether our commander-in-chief, the president of the United States, have sought to enrich himself and his family at the expense of our national security.'

'The things we do for the Orange Jesus’: Liz Cheney claims one of her Republican colleagues complained about loyalty to Trump in a cloakroom on January 6 and slams GOP for 'treating him like a king'

September 20, 2022

Outgoing Wyoming GOP Rep. Liz Cheney claimedon Monday night that a Republican colleague of hers called Donald Trump 'orange Jesus' even as he signed a form formally objecting to the ex-president's election loss.

The ousted conservative Trump critic recalled it happening in the GOP cloak room hours before the former president's supporters stormed the US Capitol to stop lawmakers from certifying his defeat.

'I was working on my remarks, I was supposed to speak that day and there were sheets of paper laid out on the desks. And I asked one of the staffers in the cloakroom, "what are these sheets of paper?" Because members were coming in and signing them,' Cheney said.

The staffer told her they were objection sheets for whoever wanted to sign up to oppose President Joe Biden's victory. Only one objection is required, but Cheney said 'there were so many who wanted to show they were objecting that they’d set up these sign-up sheets in the cloakroom.'

'As I was sitting there, a member came in and he signed his name on each one of the state’s sheets. And then he said under his breath, "The things we do for the Orange Jesus." And I thought, you know, you’re taking an act that is unconstitutional,' Cheney said.

The conservative lawmaker was ostracized from her own party for her criticism of Trump following the US Capitol riot last year and her work investigating him via the January 6 committee.

Prosecutors charge 47 'pandemic fraudsters' who 'fleeced anti-hunger children's charities to buy commercial real estate, luxury cars, fancy homes and even a coastal property in Kenya'

Officials in Minnesota have charged 47 people in connection with the $240 million fraud

They are accused of claiming money back from the government as part of their anti-hunger schemes

Aimee Bock, executive director of non-profit Feeding Our Future, is accused of turning a blind eye to the fraudulent claims

She was supposed to be working as a 'watchdog' for the government, but pocketed millions by approving the payments for her contractors

September 20, 2022

Prosecutors have charged 47 people who are accused of fleecing money from anti-hunger programs during the pandemic – before using the millions to buy luxury items.

The case lodged in Minnesota, claims that the group stole $240 million by billing the government for meals for children that did not exist.

It is thought to be the largest fraud claim uncovered in any pandemic-relief program to date.

The federal Child and Adult Care Program and Summer Food Service Program are used to feed adults and children in daycair and afterschool organizations and spend around $4billion a year.

According to court documents, the defendants spent the money on real estate in the US, Kenta and Turkey - as well as cars and luxury goods.

The Department of Justice is seeking to seize the purhcases, which include more than 20 cars, 40 properties, guns, cryptocurrency and a Louis Vuitton duffel bag.

Aimee Bock, executive director of non-profit Feeding Our Future, is named on the indictment as a ringleader of the fraud scheme.

The scheme reportedly pulled in millions of dollars a week because government officials trusted Bock to act as a ‘watchdog’ to stop the fraud.

However those who were meant to prevent fraudsters targeting the system were allowed to keep 10 to 15 percent of the money that flowed through them.

Andrew Luger, the U.S. Attorney for Minnesota, said at a press conference: ‘This is a scheme that begins with Aimee Bock and Feeding Our Future.’

Bock, 41, has denied allegations against her, and defended herself and her now-defunct organization in previous interviews.

She appeared at the federal courthouse on Tuesday morning, and is one of the 47 people implicated across six indictments and charging documents.

Bock is accused of cashing in $310,000 from a co-owner of Safari Restaurant, a contractor of the non-profit organisation.

According to the court documents she is accused of stealing $600,000 fromthe federal government by using a shell company run by her boyfriend, Empress Malcolm Watson Jr.

Warrants alledge that Bock used tha $310,000 on HOM Furniture and spent more than $15,000 at a car dealership, as well as wiring $70,000 toher ex husband.

Watson is accused of spending $40,000 on a week long jaunt to Las Vegas, where he paid $21,000 for a rental car.

He then spent $9,000 at Caesar's Palace, $6,700 at Gucci and $3,500 at Louis Vuitton.

Lemon squeezed! CNN host is stunned into silence when royal commentator says African kings - not British royals - should pay reparations for slaverybecause 'THEY rounded up their own people and had them waiting in cages on the beaches'

CNN host Don Lemon was stunned into silence by royal commentator's remarks

Lemon interviewed Hilary Fordwich last week, in a clip that went viral on Tuesday

CNN host asked whether the British royal family should pay slavery reparations

But Fordwich questioned his reasoning and placed the blame on African leaders

She argued that any reparations should be paid by descendants of 'African kings'

The Queen's funeral: All the latest Royal Family news and coverage

September 20, 2022

CNN anchor Don Lemon was at a loss for words after a royal commentator told him slavery reparations are necessary - but said they should be paid by the descendants of 'African kings' who sold their own people into slavery.

Lemon interviewed Hilary Fordwich on September 13, following Queen Elizabeth II's death, and suggested the British royal family should pay reparations for the trans-Atlantic slave trade.

In the interview, which went viral on Twitter this week, Fordwich responded by arguing that African leaders were responsible for supplying millions of enslaved people to European slave traders, saying that reparations should come from African nations.

A stunned Lemon responded that it was an 'interesting discussion' and quickly concluded the interview.

From the 16th to the late 19th century, at least 12 million African men, women and children were enslaved and transported to the Americas, where they were traded as chattel property primarily by Europeans and Euro-Americans.

While many Africans resisted the slave trade, others did actively participate in it by capturing and enslaving other Africans and bringing them to slave castles on the West and Central African coast to sell to European traders.
